Retail DeFi refers to decentralized finance services and products accessible to individual, non-institutional users. These services encompass decentralized exchanges, lending platforms, yield farming protocols, and liquidity provision opportunities, all operating without traditional financial intermediaries. Retail DeFi allows individuals direct access to financial instruments and opportunities on blockchain networks, often with fewer restrictions than conventional finance. It represents a significant shift towards more inclusive and permissionless financial participation for the general public.
